Making Limonada

Making Limonada is a memoir of life in a Mediterranean village during the last decade of Franco's Fascist Spain. In flight from her own family's tragedy, the American author discovers a country grieving its own terrible losses from the Spanish Civil War, (1936-1939). In addition to stories of raising her family in small town village life, she also relates stories of the villagers in the aftermath of the years of hunger and retribution that followed their war.
